Student Expectations

The Bayless Elementary Staff has developed the following rules/expectations.

PLAYGROUND

Stay inside the yellow lines around the playground.

Always walk in the island area.

Stay far away from the swings when waiting, and count to 20 for a swing.

Allow one person at a time on the slides, and no walking up the slides or running down them. Always use the ladder.

Only go one direction on the monkey bars, one person at a time.

Only bounce the balls, do not kick or fist them.

Do not leave the playground area to retrieve a ball without permission. Students are not to go on the parking lot.

Keep hands and feet to yourself.

Use appropriate voices outside, speak respectfully to others, and do not scream.

Stop playing and line up quickly and quietly after the whistle has been blown.

* Playground equipment is provided for the children. Students should not bring equipment from home.

* Indoor recess will be called based on the weather conditions. This decision will be made by the office and will be followed by all students.

* If weather conditions dictate the need for warmer clothing and a student has not dressed appropriately, they will be kept in from recess for their own protection. We would rather be safe than sorry.
